Hi, I am a new member and I am interested in becoming an interpreter. I am currently taking a class about American Deaf Culture (there were no ASL classes available at the times I could take them). One of the assignments for this class is to interview 4 Deaf people about their opinions on various aspects of Deaf culture. I do not know anyone that I could interview for this project, and even if I did, my signing is terrible, and I am certain the interview process would be frustrating for everyone involved.

That started me thinking about ways to contact and communicate with the Deaf community that would make it possible for us to exchange questions and answers with the least amount of misinterpretation, and I thought that Instant Messaging would be a good, real-time method of doing this. If any Deaf or Hard of Hearing members are interested in spending a few minutes discussing their opinions on American Deaf culture, I would really appreciate it. Please feel free to contact me at alizarinkrush(at)yahoo.com, or through AllDeaf- Although I am not exactly sure how that one works yet.
Thanks!

Deafness
